2 PowerScan™ PD9530/PBT9500/PM9500 About the Reader About the Reader

The PowerScan 2D is a family of feature-rich and rugged area image readers. It is offered in several different models to better fit the different needs of each customer. The main model categories are: • PD9530-XX: Corded models. • PM9500-XX: STAR-System(tm) models. • PBT9500-XX: Bluetooth models.

Within each category, further differentiating features are available, described by the part number suffix:

• D: models equipped with display and 4-key keyboard • DK: models equipped with display and 16-key keyboard • DPM: models with laser, ink jet and dot peen reading capability • HP: models with autofocus optic

Typically, units are factory-programmed for the most common terminal and communications settings. If you need to modify any programmable settings, custom configuration can be done by scanning the programming barcodes within this guide or with Datalogic Aladdin™, available from the Datalogic website. See "Datalogic Aladdin™" on page 6 for more information. Advancements in the LED technology used in the imager-based readers sig- nificantly improve the illumination of the target field of view, resulting in higher scan efficiency. Whether used in Single Trigger or Continuous Mode, the ergonomic design of the reader will help to promote comfortable han- dling during extended periods of use. In addition, the reader can be set up to read and output data from USA Driver License PDF417 bar codes. For more information reference the USA Driver License Parsing Quick Reference Guide (QRG), available on the Data- logic website. See "Interface Selection" on page 14 for a listing and descriptions of avail- able interface sets by model type.

PM8500 Compatible Mode: Powerscan PM9500 offers a limited set of features compatible with the pre- vious PM8500 family. To access those features, you have to program the system through the Compatibility Mode parameter (see "Compatibility Mode" on page 240 of the Wireless Configuration chapter). When in normal mode, the same parameter can be used to configure the communication speed.

Product Reference Guide 3 Introduction The BC9xx0™ Base Station/Charger

The BC9xx0 base station, when paired with one or more PowerScan™ 9500 readers, builds a Cordless Reading System for the collection, decoding and transmission of bar code data. It can be connected to a Host PC via RS-232, USB, or KBD Wedge, and is suited for single-cradle layouts. The BC91x0 models also provide a spare battery charger slot. The label on the cradle contains LED indicators and a multi-function button. When the button is pressed for less than 5 seconds, the cradle will transmit a "broadcast" message." When the broadcast is sent, all properly configured scanners (Radio RX Timeout set to keep the radio "awake") that are linked to that base and within radio range coverage will emit a beep and blink within 5 seconds. This functionality is useful to: • verify which scanners are linked to a certain base station • detect a scanner forgotten somewhere

When the button is pressed for longer than 5 seconds, all paired scanners will be unpaired.

The LEDs the BC9xx0-BT status, as shown in Table 1 on page 4.

Table 1. LED Status

LED STATUS Aux Yellow On = BC9xx0 is powered through an external power supply. Host Yellow On = BC9xx0 is powered by the Host. Green On = the reader battery is completely charged. Red On = the reader battery is charging. Orange Blinking = reader battery fault - replace battery. Reader Red / Green Alternatively Blinking = charging error - see "Error Codes" on page 320. Off = reader not in the cradle or not properly inserted. Green On = the spare battery is completely charged. Spare  Orange Blinking = spare battery fault - replace spare battery. (BC91x0 models Red/Green Alternatively Blinking = charging error - see "Error Codes" on only) page 320. Off = no spare battery in the housing or battery not fully inserted. Radio Yellow Blinking = radio activity. Ethernet  (Ethernet Green Blinking = Ethernet activity. models only)

See "Base Station Indications (Cordless Models ONLY)" on page 320 for more specific details on the LEDs.

4 PowerScan™ PD9530/PBT9500/PM9500 Battery Safety Battery Safety

To reinstall, charge and/or perform any other action on the battery, follow the instructions in this manual. Before installing the Battery, read “Battery Safety” on this and the following pages. Dat- alogic recommends annual replacement of rechargeable battery packs to ensure maxi- mum performance.

Do not discharge the battery using any device except for the scanner. When the battery is used in devices other than the designated product, it may damage the battery or reduce its life expectancy. If the device causes an abnormal current to flow, it may cause WARNING the battery to become hot, explode or ignite and cause serious injury. Lithium-ion battery packs may get hot, explode or ignite and cause serious injury if exposed to abusive conditions. Be sure to follow the safety warnings listed below: • Do not place the battery pack in fire or heat. • Do not connect the positive terminal and negative terminal of the battery pack to each other with any metal object (such as ). • Do not carry or store the battery pack together with metal objects. • Do not pierce the battery pack with nails, strike it with a hammer, step on it or other- wise subject it to strong impacts or shocks. • Do not solder directly onto the battery pack. • Do not expose the battery pack to liquids, or allow the battery to get wet. • Do not apply voltages to the battery pack . In the event the battery pack leaks and the fluid gets into your eye, do not rub the eye. Rinse well with water and immediately seek medical care. If left untreated, the battery fluid could cause damage to the eye.

Always charge the battery at 32° – 104°F (0° - 40°C) temperature range. Use only the authorized power supplies, battery pack, chargers, and docks supplied by your Datalogic reseller. The use of any other power supplies can damage the device and CAUTION void your warranty. Do not disassemble or modify the battery. The battery contains safety and protection devices, which, if damaged, may cause the battery to generate heat, explode or ignite. Do not place the battery in or near fire, on stoves or other high temperature locations. Do not place the battery in direct sunlight, or use or store the battery inside cars in hot weather. Doing so may cause the battery to generate heat, explode or ignite. Using the battery in this manner may also result in a loss of performance and a shortened life expectancy. Do not place the battery in microwave ovens, high-pressure containers or on induction cookware. Immediately discontinue use of the battery if, while using, charging or storing the battery, the battery emits an unusual smell, feels hot, changes color or shape, or appears abnor- mal in any other way. Do not replace the battery pack when the device is turned on. Do not remove or damage the battery pack’s label. Do not use the battery pack if it is damaged in any part. Battery pack usage by children should be supervised.

As with other types of batteries, Lithium-Ion (LI) batteries will lose capacity over time. Capacity deterioration is noticeable after one year of service whether the battery is in use or not. It is difficult to precisely predict the finite life of a LI battery, but cell manufacturers rate them at 500 charge cycles. In other words, the batteries should be expected to take 500 full dis-

Product Reference Guide 5 Introduction

charge / charge cycles before needing replacement. This number is higher if partial discharging / recharging is adhered to rather than full / deep dis- charging, The typical manufacturer advertised useful life of LI batteries is one to three years, depending on usage and number of charges, etc., after which they should be removed from service, especially in mission critical applications. Do not continue to use a battery that is showing excessive loss of capacity, it should be properly recycled / disposed of and replaced. For most applica- tions, batteries should be replaced after one year of service to maintain cus- tomer satisfaction and minimize safety concerns. Collect and recycle waste batteries separately from the device in compliance with European Directive 2006/66/EC, 2011/65/EU, 2002/96/EC and 2012/ 19/EU and subsequent modifications, US and China regulatory and others laws and regulations about the environment.

Programming the Reader

Configuration Methods

Programming Bar Codes The reader is factory-configured with a standard set of default features. After scanning the interface bar code, you can select other options and cus- tomize your reader through use of the instructions and programming bar code labels available in the corresponding features section for your inter- face. Customizable settings for many features are found in "Configuration Parameters" starting on page 21. Some programming labels, like "Restore Custom Defaults" on page 18, require only the scan of the single label to enact the change. Most, however, require the reader to be placed in Programming Mode prior to scanning them. Scan an ENTER/EXIT bar code once to enter Programming Mode. Once the reader is in Programming Mode, scan a number of parameter settings before scanning the ENTER/EXIT bar code a second time, which will then accept your changes, exit Programming Mode and return the reader to nor- mal operation.

There are some exceptions to the typical programming sequence described above. Please read the description and setting instructions carefully when configuring each programmable feature.

Datalogic Aladdin™ Datalogic Aladdin™ is a multi-platform utility program providing a quick and user-friendly configuration method via the RS-232/USB-COM interface. Aladdin allows you to program the reader by selecting configuration com- mands through a user-friendly graphical interface running on a PC. These commands are sent to the reader over the selected communication interface, or they can be printed as bar codes to be scanned. Aladdin also facilitates image capturing. In addition, Aladdin makes it easy to upgrade the handheld’s firmware, to attain the benefits of new reader features. Reference the Datalogic Aladdin™ Online Help for more details. Aladdin is available for download free of charge on the Datalogic website.

Product Reference Guide 13 Setup BC9xx0 Configuration The BC9xx0 configuration can be performed in three ways: by using the Datalogic Aladdin™ software configuration program, by sending configura- tion strings from the Host PC via the RS-232 or USB-COM interface or by reading configuration bar codes with the PowerScan™ 9500 reader. Serial Configuration By connecting the BC9xx0 to a PC through an RS-232 or USB-COM interface cable it is possible to send configuration strings from the PC to BC9xx0. Configuration Bar Codes Link the cradle and the reader using the procedures described in the Power- Scan™ PM9500 or PBT9500 Quick Reference. Once the pairing is complete, you can configure the BC9xx0 cradle by reading configuration bar codes in this manual. To configure the BC9xx0 using the PowerScan™ 9500 reader (paired to the cradle with the Bind command), follow the procedure according to the inter- face selected.

Interface Selection

Upon completing the physical connection between the reader and its host, proceed to Table 2 on page 15 to select the interface type the reader is con- nected to (for example: RS-232, Keyboard Wedge, USB, etc.). Scan the appropriate bar code in that section to configure your system’s correct interface type.

Setting the Interface Scan the programming bar code from this section which selects the appro- priate interface type matching the system the reader will be connected to. Next, proceed to the corresponding section in this manual (also listed in Table 2 on page 15) to configure any desired settings and features associ- ated with that interface. Unlike some programming features and options, interface selections require that you scan only one programming bar code label. DO NOT scan an ENTER/EXIT bar code prior to scanning an interface selection bar code. Some interfaces require the scanner to start in the disabled state when powered up. If additional scanner configuration is desired while in this state, pull the trigger and hold it for five seconds. The scanner will change to a state that allows programming with bar codes.

A Label ID is a customizable code of up to three ASCII characters (convert to Hex using the ASCII Chart on the inside back cover of this manual), used to identify a bar code symbology type. It can be appended previous to or fol- lowing the transmitted bar code data depending upon how this option is enabled. This feature provides options for configuring custom Label IDs or individually per symbology (see "Individually Set Label ID" on page 56). If you wish to program the reader to always include an industry standard label identifier for ALL symbology types, see the previous feature "Global AIM ID" on page 51. See Label ID, starting on page 288 of “References” for more information on setting this feature.

Label ID: Pre-Loaded Sets The reader supports two pre-loaded sets of Label IDs. See Label ID: Pre- loaded Sets, starting on page 288 for details on the USA set and EU set. When changing from one Label ID set to another, all other reader configuration settings, including the host interface type, will be erased and set to the standard factory defaults.

MULTIPLE LABEL READING In standard (default) mode, when the reader’s aiming system is activated (by a trigger pull, motion or other method depending on the mode), it then acquires and processes each image in the area in front of it (the Volume). In this case, the scanner stops processing the image once it decodes a label. If several labels are present in the volume, only the first label encountered is decoded and sent. When Multiple Reading Mode is enabled, the scanner keeps on processing the image until all the labels present are decoded. The reader then sorts the data from all the bar codes (if configured to do so) before transmitting it.

Multiple Labels per Frame Specifies the ability of the reader to decode and transmit a set of code labels in a specific volume and in a single frame of time. When in Multiple Labels per Frame the reader beeps and turns on the good read LED indication for each code read in a frame. When Multiple Labels Mode is enabled, ISBT pairing, ABC Codabar pairing, and composites are not allowed.

2D Global Features

The following features are common to all, or in some cases, most of the available 2D symbologies. Default settings are indicated at each feature/ option with a green arrow. Also reference Appendix C, Standard Defaults for a listing of the most widely used set of standard factory settings. That sec- tion also provides space to record any custom settings needed or imple- mented for your system. To set most features:

1. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING bar code at the top of applicable programming pages.

2. Scan the correct bar code to set the desired programming feature or parameter. You may need to cover unused bar codes on the page, and possibly the facing page, to ensure that the reader reads only the bar code you intend to scan.

3. If additional input parameters are needed, go to Appendix D, Keypad, and scan the appropriate characters from the keypad. Additional information about many features can be found in the “Ref- erences” chapter. If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL bar code to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the beginning.

Complete the programming sequence by scanning the ENTER/EXIT PRO- GRAMMING bar code to exit Programming Mode.

Baud Rate Baud rate is the number of bits of data transmitted per second. Set the reader's baud rate to match the baud rate setting of the host device. With an improper baud rate setting, data may not reach the host correctly. Stop Bits The stop bit(s) at the end of each transmitted character marks the end of transmission of one character and prepares the receiving device for the next character in the serial data stream. The number of stop bits selected (one or two) depends on the number the receiving terminal is programmed to accommodate. Set the number of stop bits to match host device require- ments. Parity This feature specifies parity required for sending and receiving data. A parity check bit is the most significant bit of each ASCII coded character. Select the parity type according to host device requirements. • Select None when no parity bit is required. • Select Odd parity and the parity bit value is set to 0 or 1, based on data, to ensure that an odd number of 1 bits are contained in the coded character. • Select Even parity and the parity bit value is set to 0 or 1, based on data, to ensure that an even number of 1 bits are contained in the coded character. Handshaking Control The data interface consists of an RS-232 port designed to operate either with or without the hardware handshaking lines, Request to Send (RTS), and Clear to Send (CTS). Handshaking Control includes the following options: • RTS — RTS is asserted during transmissions. CTS is ignored. • RTS/CTS — RTS is asserted during transmissions. CTS gates transmis- sions. • RTS/XON/XOFF — RTS is asserted during transmissions. CTS is ignored. XON and XOFF gate transmissions. • RTS On/CTS — RTS is always asserted. CTS gates transmissions. RTS/CTS Scan Control — RTS is asserted during transmissions. CTS gates transmissions and controls enable and disable state of scanner.

Intercharacter Delay This parameter specifies the intercharacter delay between the end of one character and the beginning of the next. The delay can be set within a range of zero (0) to 990 milliseconds in 10ms increments. A setting of zero speci- fies no delay. To set the delay:

1. Determine the desired setting in milliseconds.

2. Divide the desired setting by 10 (setting is in 10ms increments). Pad the result with leading zeroes to yield two digits. For example: 0 = 00, 5 = 05, 20 = 20, etc.

3. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code to enter Program- ming Mode.

4. Go to page 31 and scan the bar code: SELECT INTERCHARACTER DELAY SETTING.

5. Scan the appropriate two digits from the keypad in Appendix D, Key- pad, that represent the duration which was determined in the steps above. You will hear a two-beep indication after the last character. If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL bar code to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the beginning.

6. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code to exit. This completes the procedure. See Table 28 for some examples of how to set this feature.

Product Reference Guide 273 References ACK NAK Options This enables/disables the ability of the reader to support the RS-232 ACK/ NAK protocol. When configured, the reader and/or host sends an “ACK” when it receives data properly, and sends “NAK” when the data is in error. Options are: •Disable • Enable for label transmission — The reader expects an ACK/NAK response from the host when a label is sent. • Enable for host-command acknowledge — The reader will respond with ACK/NAK when the host sends a command. • Enable for label transmission and host-command acknowledge ACK Character This setting specifies an ASCII character or hex value to be used as the ACK character. ASCII characters or any hex value from 0 to 0xFF can be selected. Setting to previously defined characters such as XON, XOFF, or host commands conflicts with normal operation of these characters. 8-bit data is not recognized when the option Data Bits has been set as 7 Data Bits.

Datamatrix DPM Decoding Safety Decoding Safety is used to configure a decoder to be very aggressive to very conservative, depending on a particular customer’s needs. • Level 1 results in a very aggressive decoder. • Level 5 results in a very conservative decoder at the expense of not being able to read poorly printed or damaged labels. There are many factors that determine when to change the decoding safety. These factors include spots, voids, non-uniform backgrounds, damaged labels, etc. that may be experienced in some barcode labels. If there are many hard to read or damaged labels that cannot be decoded using a con- servative setting, decrease the decoding safety to be more aggressive. In case of rigorous reliability application requirements it is suggested to use higher decoding safety values (conservative).

Set Length Length Control allows you to select either variable length decoding or fixed length decoding for the specified symbology.

Variable Length: For variable length decoding, a minimum and maximum length may be set.

Fixed Length: For fixed length decoding, two different lengths may be set. Set Length 1 This feature specifies one of the bar code lengths for Length Control. Length 1 is the minimum label length if in Variable Length Mode, or the first fixed length if in Fixed Length Mode. Length includes the bar code’s data charac- ters only. The number of characters that can be set varies, depending on the symbol- ogy. Reference the page for your selected symbology to see specific vari- ables.

1. Determine the desired character length (varies depending on symbol- ogy). Pad the number with leading zeroes to yield two digits. For exam- ple: 0 = 00, 5 = 05, 20 = 20, etc.

2. Go to the Set Length page for your selected symbology and scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code to enter Programming Mode.

3. Scan the bar code to SELECT LENGTH 1 SETTING for your selected sym- bology.

4. Scan the appropriate two digits from the keypad in Appendix D, Key- pad, that represent the length setting which was determined in the steps above. You will hear a two-beep indication after the last charac- ter. If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL bar code to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the begin- ning.

Product Reference Guide 283 References

5. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code to exit Prog Mode. Set Length 2 This feature allows you to set one of the bar code lengths for the specified symbology. Length 2 is the maximum label length if in Variable Length Mode, or the second fixed length if in Fixed Length Mode. See the page for the specific symbology for parameters. The length that can be set varies depending on the symbology. A setting of 0 specifies to ignore this length (only one fixed length). Follow these instructions to set this feature:

1. Determine the desired character length (from 1 to 50 — or 0 to ignore this length). Pad the number with leading zeroes to yield two digits. For example: 0 = 00, 5 = 05, 20 = 20, etc.

2. Go to the Set Length page for your selected symbology and scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code to enter Programming Mode.

3. Scan the bar code to SELECT LENGTH 2 SETTING for your selected sym- bology.

4. Scan the appropriate two digits from the keypad in Appendix D, Keypad that represent the length setting which was determined in the steps above. You will hear a two-beep indication after the last character. If you make a mistake, before the last character scan the CANCEL bar code to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the beginning.

5. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code to exit Program- ming Mode. This completes the procedure.

284 PowerScan™ PD9530/PBT9500/PM9500 Data Editing Data Editing

When a bar code is scanned, additional information can be sent to the host computer along with the bar code data. This combination of bar code data and supplementary user-defined data is called a “message string.” The Data Editing features can be used to build specific user-defined data into a mes- sage string. There are several types of selectable data characters that can be sent before and after scanned data. You can specify if they should be sent with all sym- bologies, or only with specific symbologies. Figure 7 shows the available elements you can add to a message string: Figure 7. Breakdown of a Message String Label ID Transmission: Enable this option to transmit the Label ID you configure for the scanned symbology. OR...

Prefix Label IDAIM ID Bar Code Data Label ID Suffix AIM ID: This function is used to identify and display the common label identifier for its symbology. When enabled, this ID code will be transmitted before the scanned bar code data. 00 - 20 Characters (ASCII)

Additional advanced editing is available. See the Advanced formatting features in the Datalogic Aladdin configuration software, or contact Technical Support (as described on page 2) for more information.

Please Keep In Mind... • Modifying a message string is not a mandatory requirement. Data edit- ing is a sophisticated feature allowing highly customizable output for advanced users. Factory default settings for data editing is typically set to NONE. • A prefix or suffix may be applied only to a specified symbology (refer- ence 1D Symbologies, starting on page 81 or 2D Symbologies, starting on page 173 ) or across all symbologies (set via the Global features in this chapter). • You can add any character from the ASCII Chart (from 00-FF) on the inside back cover of this manual as a prefix, suffix or Label ID. • Enter prefixes and suffixes in the order in which you want them to appear on the output.

Product Reference Guide 285 References Global Prefix/Suffix Up to 20 ASCII characters may be added as a prefix (in a position before the bar code data) and/or as a suffix (in a position following the bar code data) as indicated in Figure 8. Figure 8. Prefix and Suffix Positions

Example: Setting a Prefix In this example, we’ll set a prefix for all symbologies.

1. Determine which ASCII character(s) are to be added to scanned bar code data. In this example, we’ll add a dollar sign (‘$’) as a prefix.

2. Go to page 50 and scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code, then scan the SET GLOBAL PREFIX bar code.

3. Reference the ASCII Chart on the inside back cover of this manual to find the hex value assigned to the desired character. The corresponding hex number for the ‘$’ character is 24. To enter this selection code, scan the ‘2’ and ‘4’ bar codes from Appendix D, Keypad. If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL bar code to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the beginning.

4. If less than the expected string of 20 characters are selected, scan the ENTER/EXIT bar code to terminate the string.

5. Scan the ENTER/EXIT bar code once again to exit Programming Mode.

6. The resulting message string would appear as follows: Scanned bar code data: 12345 Resulting message string output: $12345

Global AIM ID

This feature enables/disables addition of AIM IDs for all sym- bology types.

AIM label identifiers (as opposed to custom characters you select yourself as with label identifiers) can be included with scanned bar code data. AIM label identifiers consist of three characters as follows: • A close brace character (ASCII ‘]’), followed by... • A code character (see the table below), followed by...

290 PowerScan™ PD9530/PBT9500/PM9500 Data Editing Label ID: Set Individually Per Symbology To configure a Label ID individually for a single symbology:

1. Go to page 56 and scan the ENTER/EXIT bar code.

2. Select Label ID position as either BEFORE (Enable as Prefix) or AFTER (Enable as suffix) by scanning the appropriate bar code in the section "Label ID Control" on page 56. Reference Figure 10 for Label ID posi- tioning options if multiple identification features are enabled.

3. Scan a bar code to select the symbology for which you wish to config- ure a custom Label ID from the section "Label ID Symbology Selection − 1D Symbologies" on page 57.

4. Determine the desired character(s) (you may choose up to three) which will represent the Label ID for the selected symbology.

5. Turn to the ASCII Chart on the inside back cover of this manual and find the equivalent hex digits associated with your choice of Label ID. For example, if you wish to select an equal sign (=) as a Label ID, the chart indicates its associated hex characters as 3D. Turn to Keypad, starting on page 339 and scan the bar codes representing the hex characters determined. For the example given, the characters ‘3’ and ‘D’ would be scanned. More examples of Label ID settings are provided in Table 39. If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL bar code to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the beginning.

6. Scan the ENTER/EXIT bar code to exit Label ID entry.

7. Scan the ENTER/EXIT bar code once again to exit Programming Mode. This completes the steps to configure a Label ID for a given symbology. Figure 10. Label ID Position Options

292 PowerScan™ PD9530/PBT9500/PM9500 Data Editing Character Conversion Character conversion is an eight byte configuration item. The eight bytes are 4 character pairs represented in hexadecimal ASCII values. The first charac- ter in the pair is the character that will be converted. The second character in the pair is the character to convert to. If the character to convert in a pair is FF, then no conversion is done. For example, if you have the character conversion configuration item set to the following: 41423132FFFFFFFF The first pair is 4142 or AB (41 hex is an ASCII capital A, 42 hex is an ASCII capital B) and the second pair is 3132 or 12 (31 hex is an ASCII 1, 32 is an ASCII 2). The other two pairs are FFFF and FFFF. With the label, AB12BA21, it would look as follows after the character con- version: BB22BB22. The A characters were converted to B characters and the 1 characters were converted to 2 characters. Nothing is done with the last two character pairs, since they are all FF. To set Character Conversion:

1. Go to page 61 and scan the ENTER/EXIT bar code.

2. Scan the “Configure Character Conversion” bar code.

3. Determine the desired string. Sixteen positions must be determined as in the above example. Next, turn to the ASCII Chart on the inside back cover of this manual and find the equivalent hex digits needed to fulfill the string.

4. Turn to Appendix D, Keypad and scan the bar codes representing the hex characters determined in the previous step.

5. Scan the ENTER/EXIT bar code to exit Programming Mode.

If less than the expected string of 16 characters are selected, scan the ENTER/EXIT bar code twice to accept the selections and exit Program- ming Mode.

Scan Mode This mode is associated with typical handheld reader operation. Selects the scan operating mode for the reader. The following selections are valid for all models:

Trigger Single: When the trigger is pulled, scanning is activated until one of the following occurs: - Scanning Active Time has elapsed - a label has been read - the trigger is released

Trigger Hold Multiple: When the trigger is pulled, scanning starts and the product scans until the trigger is released or Scanning Active Time has elapsed. Reading a label does not disable scanning. Double Read Timeout prevents undesired multiple reads of the same label while in this mode.

Trigger Pulse Multiple: When the trigger is pulled, continuous scanning is acti- vated until Scanning Active Time has elapsed or the trigger has been released and pulled again. Double Read Timeout prevents undesired multi- ple reads of the same label while in this mode.

Flashing: The reader flashes on and off regardless of the trigger status. Flash rate is controlled by Flash On Time and Flash Off Time. When Flash is ON the imager reads continuously; when Flash is OFF scanning is deactivated.

Always On: No trigger pull is required to read a bar code. Scanning is contin- ually on. If the trigger is pulled, the reader acts as if it is in Trigger Single Mode. Double Read Timeout prevents undesired multiple reads of the same label while in this mode.

Stand Mode: No trigger pull is required to read a bar code. Scanning is turned on automatically when an item is placed in the reader’s field of view. Double Read Timeout prevents undesired multiple reads while in this mode.

Changing System Speed in Normal Mode

1. Link the PM9500 with a BC9xxx Base.

2. With the PM9500, read a Compatible Mode programming label on page 240 to set low, intermediate, or high speed.

3. Place the PM9500 into the BC9xxx.

The Reader and Base will now be linked at the new programmed speed.

This feature can also be programmed using Datalogic Aladdin.

1. On the BC9xxx Base, change the Compatible mode parameter to low, intermediate, or high speed through Aladdin.

2. Place an unlinked PM9500 onto the BC9xxx base.

The Reader and base will link with the new programmed speed.

Bluetooth-Only Features

Bluetooth Pin Code This option specifies the 4-character or 16-character pin code to be used for authentication of the Bluetooth link. To set the pin code:

1. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code to enter Program- ming Mode, then enable "Bluetooth Security Mode" on page 226.

2. Specify the desired pin code length (4 or 16) by scanning the appropri- ate bar code in "Select PIN Code Length" on page 226.

3. Determine the desired characters. For example, D254 or STOR12345678135M.

4. Convert the characters to hexadecimal using the ASCII Chart on the inside back cover of this manual.

5. Go to page 226 and Scan the bar code: SET 4 CHAR PIN CODE or SET 16-CHAR PIN CODE.

6. Scan the appropriate alphanumeric characters from the keypad in Appendix D, Keypad, representing the hexadecimal entries determined in the steps above. You will hear a two-beep indication after the last character. If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL bar code to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the beginning.

7. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code to exit Program- ming Mode. Changing the pin code setting will unlink the devices. If the Automatic Configuration Update is set to the default enabled setting, the devices must only be relinked. If the Automatic Configuration Update is set to the disabled setting, the Pin Code setting must also be updated in the Base Station using Aladdin. After the Base Station has been updated, the devices must be relinked.

308 PowerScan™ PD9530/PBT9500/PM9500 Chapter 5 Message Formatting

Message Formatting is available for PM9500 models only. For this feature to be operational, the scanner must be set to Ignore Host Commands (see page 23).

A message from the Host to the base must follow these rules: • If Address stamping options or address delimiter are enabled on the base, the Host replay must have address field and delimiter too. Other- wise the message will be ignored. Address delimiter is present only when address stamping is enabled. • Address stamping is necessary to correctly route the message to the PM9500, especially when more than one handheld is linked to the same base. Address stamping could be disabled if the system is in point to point configuration. If address stamping is not enabled, the messages are addressed to the first handheld linked to the base. • The maximum character length for messages is 48. • Messages end with “CR” 0x0D ASCII character. The CR character cannot be contained in the middle. • Messages cannot start with '$' or # because these are reserved for Ser- vice mode command • Base station can receive host message only if Host Commands Obey/ Ignore is set to Ignore. • Message could be sent to the handheld in response to a Label when “Transmit mode” require Ack from Host (see transmit mode parameter) or at any time. When messages are sent not in response to a label must start with DC2 0x12 ASCII character and could be sent in any transmit mode setting. • Message could be sent to all handhelds linked to the base by using a Multicast message:  “00 00 00 00 2A AA” • In order to receive a message, handhelds must not be in sleep state. The format of the ACK from Host message (used for transmission mode 02) is: [Scanner_Addr] [Scanner_Addr_delimiter] MESSAGE The format of a generic message From Host to HH is: [Scanner_Addr] [Scanner_Addr_delimiter] DC2 MESSAGE where DC2 is ASCII 0x12 (^R) character. [Items in square brackets are optional.] • If you want to control the Scanner's beeper from the host, you will also probably want to disable the good transmission beep that is emitted when the code is received from the cradle. (See "Wireless Beeper Fea- tures" on page 210). The message field can store plain text and escape sequences. • Escape sequences are interpreted as commands.

Product Reference Guide 309 Message Formatting Cursor Control

ESC [ n A Up n rows, no scroll ESC [ n B Down n rows, no scroll ESC [ n C Right n columns ESC [ n D Left n columns ESC [ G CR ESC [ r ; c H Move to row r, column c (ESC[1;1H is the upper left character position of the display) ESC D Down 1 row, with scroll ESC E CR and cursor down 1 row with scroll ESC M Up 1 row and scroll

• Since CR is used as the message terminator, you must use ESC [ G or ESC E to print a CR. • The cursor row position is not affected by the currently selected font. The display always has 6 rows, so when writing with the large font, actually three rows are written. You will need two ESC E com- mands to step from one row to the next when using the large font. • The cursor column position is affected by the currently selected font. Therefore, column 6 is 36 pixels from the left border only if you last selected the 6x8 font; otherwise it could be 48 or 72 pixels from the left border.

Font Selection

ESC [ 0 m Normal mode ESC [ 7 m Reverse mode ESC # 4 Large font: subsequent characters are written on the current row and the row below it using the 12x16 font which allows for two rows of eight characters on the display. ESC # 5 Normal font: subsequent characters are written using the 6x8 font, which allows for four rows of sixteen characters on the display. ESC # 7 Medium font: subsequent characters are written using the 8x8 font, which allows for four rows of twelve characters on the display.

The LED control escape sequences are intended to activate the LEDs for short periods of time and can be used in combination with the Beeper. The LED and Beeper will be controlled by the system after the entire command sequence is interpreted. Example: ESC [ 6 q ESC [ 3 q ESC [ 7 q Turns on the green LED, emits a good read tone, and turns off the green LED. ESC [ 6 q ESC [ 5 q ESC [ 7 q Turns on the green LED for 100 ms and then turns off the green LED.

Product Reference Guide 337 Standard Defaults Restore Factory Configuration If you want to restore the Factory Configuration for your imager, scan either the Restore USA Factory Configuration bar code or the Restore EU Factory Configuration bar code below. Both labels restore the scanner configuration to the factory settings, including the interface type. Scanning either of the “Restore Factory Configuration” commands below will result in the loss of any custom configuration settings for your device. Go to "Restore Custom Defaults" on page 18 if CAUTION you want to restore your custom configuration settings.

The USA label restores Label IDs to those historically used in the USA. The EU label restores Label IDs to those historically used in Europe. The Label ID sets for USA and EU are shown in Label ID: Pre-loaded Sets, starting on page 288 of this manual.

Control Character Emulation

Control character emulation selects from different scancode tables as listed in this appendix. Each of the control character sets below are detailed by interface type in the tables. These apply to Wedge and USB Keyboard platforms.

Control Character 00 : Characters from 00 to 0x1F are sent as control character Ctrl+Keys, special keys are located from 0x80 to 0xA1.

Control Character 01 : Characters from 00 to 0x1F are sent as control character Ctrl+Capital Key, special keys are located from 0x80 to 0xA1.

Control Character 02 : Special keys are located from 00 to 0x1F and characters from 0x80 to 0xFE are intended as an extended ASCII table (Microsoft Windows Codepage 1252 — see page 348).

Single Press and Release Keys In the following tables, Ar↓ means Alt right pressed and Ar↑ means Alt right released and so on. Definitions for other keys are Al (Alt left ), Cr (Control Right ) Cl (Control Left ) Sh (shift). This method can be used for combining Alt, Control or Shift with other keys. Example: Consider a Control character set to 00. If AltRight+A is required before sending a label to the host, it could be done by setting three Prefix keys in this way: 0x99 0x41 0x9A.
